University of Houston-Victoria students play volleyball Thursday during a Fourth of July pool party hosted by the UHV Student Involvement office. During the party, students, faculty and staff members were able to enjoy the pool at UHV Jaguar Hall as well as a barbecued brisket with sides and a variety of games. Although university offices were closed during the holiday, the university hosted the party to give students living on campus an opportunity to have fun and celebrate while away from home.
